Thank you Corinna for looking into this. So I tried rebuilding cygwin1.dll in 1.7 with gcc-4 from the instructions in http://cygwin.com/cvs.html and http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.programming.html#faq.programming.building-cygwin, and while the make didn't finish (perl hung -- "... fatal error - unable to remap ...\Glob.dll to same address as parent ..."), it did produce new-cygwin1.dll. And with that new-cygwin1.dll installed as /bin/cygwin1.dll, I now get:
$ cygpath -w image.png e.png That is, the first four characters are missing. So my next question is how should I be rebuilding the 1.7 cygwin1.dll? - Greg -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
